Ideally, we would like to sell each property after 5 years, but we want to have some flexibility to adjust to market conditions and have established a holding period of 5 to 7 years.

Details on the sponsor compensation can be found in the Term Sheet; however, the following is a summary of industry standard sponsor/manager compensation:

Management Fee 3% of hotel gross revenues

Asset Management Fee: 0.5% of gross revenues

Acquisition Fee: 1% of purchase price

Disposition Fee: 1.5% of sale price

Cash distributions will be made quarterly and you can expect to receive your distribution within 30-45 days following the end of each calendar quarter.

On or about March 1st each year we will be providing you with year-end financials along with a Schedule K-1 needed for filing your tax returns. We also will be providing reports periodically on the performance of the property along with any other important information we feel might be of interest to our investor partners.

Yes, we do. First, we include in our acquisition cost funds for all brand mandated remodeling and PIP work. In addition, we set aside 4% of gross revenues in a replacement reserve fund which will be utilized for capital expenditures during the property holding period.

Yes, an affiliate of National Lodging & Leisure (NLL Group, LLC) will be co-investing alongside our investor partners an amount up to 10% of the total equity amount for each property acquired.

Yes, our investment properties are an excellent option for someone involved in a 1031 exchange transaction. Please contact us for additional information and instructions.

For several reasons: Florida has consistent population and business growth; a low tax, pro-business environment; many diversified room demand generators; high barriers to entry for competition; a drive-to vacation destination for almost one-third of the country; higher average occupancy rates; and, a history of success in the hospitality sector.

While it’s impossible to accurately determine risk, the fact that historically less than 0.5% of premium branded hotels fail in this country (Source: SBA), and that we will only be acquiring top-tier select-service branded hotels, and that we will only be purchasing properties with successful track records, we believe place our investment properties in the low risk category.

Yes. The principals of NLL have completed over 50 private equity placements like this over the past twenty years and have extensive experience in equity and long-term debt placement.

The escrow agreement provides that in the event we are unable to acquire a hotel property that meets our criteria and approval by our investors within six (6) months from date specified in the escrow agreement, we will return your funds to you, plus any accrued interest.

By its nature, real estate is a non-liquid investment. However, we know that events do happen that might require the sale of an investor’s interest. Accordingly, if such an event were to occur, we will work with such investors to accommodate their needs.

Yes. Investors will have the opportunity to book rooms at our hotels at our “owner rate” of $25 per night. Naturally, some restrictions will apply and details on this can be found in the Term Sheet.

A couple of things make us different. First, the management of NLL brings over 175 years of experience to the table. We just don’t buy hotels and then operate them as previous owners have – we improve and finetune the performance of the asset in order to increase cashflows. In the industry it’s known as “value-add investing” and it’s something we have done for years and are especially good at. We apply better hands-on management techniques and make physical improvements that allow our properties to operate at higher occupancy and daily room rate levels. And we do this in a cost-effective manner in that all the skills necessary to execute our plans is housed within the management team. We don’t have to hire outside people to do the work – we do it ourselves.

We also run a very lean (cost effective) management team. We don’t waste our investor’s money on unnecessary bells and whistles. Since we co-invest with you in all our transactions, your money is our money.

There are quite a few differences. Second, we will only be acquiring properties that will generate much higher returns (12% to 15% cash on cash), versus REIT’s average returns in the 6% to 9% range. And third, our investments will have a substantial capital appreciation component, sometimes totally missing from most REIT’s. All you receive from most private REIT’s is a coupon return. Period.
